Split bill, Take Order and Pay by Seat, All in one ticket

I’ve been using this method for a while and I just redesign it to reduce button.

HOW IT WORKS:

Release Notes:
Jan 6, 2017 - V0

  • Initial release
  • Need @emre help with TICKET ORDER EXACT TOTAL (version 5.1.61) to work with tax and calculation. I still can’t get tax to include in EXACT TOTAL.

Very cool! Thanks for sharing - waitress has been requesting this feature as we are getting Samba setup and testing with them , they can make due for now since they can split the bill but this functionality would work great. Will wait to see if the Tax calculation issues are solved before I implement it.

So I am anxious to set this up in my system but I don’t see any action type Select Order. What am I missing?

It might be in the additional ticket actions module, install that on samba market (free).

@JTRTech is correct. Install this Module…


Restart SambaPOS and the Action will be there…

I found this feature very useful, many thanks. unfortunately I don’t know why the seat nr is not updated with action under orders:

[=‘{TICKET TAG:Current Seat}’==" ? ‘Seat 0’ : ‘{TICKET TAG:Current Seat}’]

The turnary expression you posted doesn’t help much without seeing where it is and what’s going on in your automation.

I uploaded the setup file for this tutorial.

SETUP.zip (3.3 KB)
file.

What would be the easiest way to handle the tax(or tax exempt) in this method as the tax kind of hard coded into the process(#7).

Should I devise a constraint to “PAY - Update Local Program Setting”?

Hi all. So im a little bit lost here. I want mto get this up and running and am just about done. I am on rule number 7. It says to add the automation comman PAY- By Seat / Get Payment but this was never created. Only three automation commands were created in this tutorial. Should I add it and if so, where do I map it. Thanks.

Also in rule 7 it has PAY - Update Local Program Setting action twice. How can I add that action twice in the same rule? Thanks.

When you on the add action popup and select show all and it will show you ones already added to allow second time.

Pay by seat is at the top, automation command number 3…

NO you don’t need to create that “virtual” button manually, it is auto created by an action previously, which I think, in an ask question action.
